Monster's Newest Flavors Have Everyone Talking

It's here — the moment energy drink fanatics have all been waiting for. Monster Energy has released two new flavors for their Juice Monster line, and the extreme energy drink world is, fittingly, abuzz. One flavor — Khaotic — isn't necessarily a brand new concoction for Monster, but rather a revamped version of their original Khaos juice flavor. The new and improved mixture is an orange citrus number that they have lightened up and readjusted for a taste that, according to their website "is better experienced than described." The second is called Papillon, in honor of the "humble butterfly," that has a peach and nectarine flavor profile (via Monster).

Monster also enlisted the services of street artist RISK, who designed the cans and the one-of-a-kind car — yes, car — that will go to the winner of a giveaway for the new flavor launch (via Bevnet). The graffiti artist, described by Los Angeles Magazine as a "pioneer of street art in Los Angeles," incorporates elements of SoCal's car, surf, and skate culture into his colorful, vibrant artwork. This collaboration makes total sense for a company that started out as Hansen's Juices, selling juice in the 1930s to the Cali culture purveyors themselves (via Fortune and Hansen's).
